BREAKING: Labour commences indefinite strike
Nigerian Labour Congress has said that it would embark on an indefinite nationwide strike on Monday, June 3.
The President of the Union, Joe Ajaero, disclosed this at an ongoing press briefing in Labour House, Abuja.
He said the strike is due to the failure of the federal government to conclude negotiations on a new national minimum wage and reverse the hike in the electricity tariff.
Ajaero said the strike would begin by midnight on Sunday, June 2, 2024.
At the briefing, leaders of NLC and TUC pleaded with Nigerians to bear with them, saying “Apologies for inconveniences but commitment to pursue the cause to its conclusion.”
